An unoccupied home in the area of Madison Avenue in Montgomery sustained heavy damage after a fire on Monday.

Sgt. OJ Whiting with Montgomery Fire Department said heavy flames and smoke were coming from the vacant structure at the corner of South Panama Street and Palmetto Street. The home had no power or electricity running to it.

Fire crews used an exterior attack on the structure to get it under control. No injuries were reported from either civilian or fire personnel.
